Derek Tarman '21 Recruiting Profile

Athletics are really important to me because they offer an escape from all the stress of school work and other stressors that contribute to my life. Academics are my number one priority however that does not me I get lazy in my practices. I am hard working, dedicated, and will do my best to get the job done.

This year I had the honor of competing in New Mexico’s 3 A state tournament. I competed in the triple jump event, I sent a new pr and school record in prelims alone! However in finals I found myself scratching by just the slightest of hairs. This discouraged me, however I have not let it get the best of me. I still train almost every day despite that rough tending of a season. I hope to continue track into college while furthering my education.
